.DISCUSSION...
A front along the Southwest Alaska coast will bring increased
moisture and temperatures near or slightly below normal for today,
with gusty southeast winds out of Kamishak Gap. Precipitation
associated with the front will be light, though there is a chance
for wetting rains along the northern Bristol Bay coast. Otherwise,
isolated to scattered rain showers are expected along the
Kuskokwim Delta coast and in the northern portions of the Western
Alaska Range this afternoon/evening. Scattered showers are likely
to develop with similar areal coverage (across most of Southwest
Alaska) tomorrow afternoon/evening. By Friday, trending slightly
warmer and drier.
